Facts are 1/2 the amount of people died in same period last year and maybe triple would have or higher if whoever died of whatever had the flu and had a heart attack or cancer or whatever when really they died form complications from the flu and there death certificate reads cause of death,
Bottom Line is until a vaccine is found and it is proven to prevent wahoo-china- covid 19 it is what it is so if these guidelines were in place before looks to me like everyone should go out and have a cold drink of there choice and protest whatever for whatever reason. Thank God you are on earth and are able to breath.
Even still, high early-season vaccination rates and a relatively effective annual vaccine appeared to help suppress illnesses. In total, the CDC estimates that up to 42.9 million people got sick during the 2018-2019 flu season, 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died.

An accurate count of the number of deaths due to COVID–19infection, which depends in part on proper death certification,is critical to ongoing public health surveillance and response.When a death is due to COVID–19, it is likely the UCOD andthus, it should be reported on the lowest line used in Part I ofthe death certificate. Ideally, testing for COVID–19 should be conducted,
but it is acceptable to report COVID–19 on a deathcertificate without this confirmation if the circumstances arecompelling within a reasonable degree of certainty.
it is whatever it is you want it to be..
